I’m using using a Revanced patched version of RIF is Fun to access Reddit. I have a VPN with ad blockers running. The app doesn’t have location permissions. I am getting ads for my city in it. The odd thing is that before the banning of 3rd party Reddit apps, I never got ads on RIF. I’m not only curious how they’re finding my location, but if anyone is getting paid for these ads since RIF has officially shut down and it’s only usable because of the Revanced patch.
Better question: Why are you still on Reddit?
Serious reply.
There are some subs that have content you still cannot get elsewhere.
r/askhistorians is one great example, along with a lot of hobby subs.
I still check these out occasionally via RSS, then open in old.reddit.com to see the comments.
If I could see the comments via RSS, I would.
